ered software product that reduces user time spent on

save set operations. SSMgr reduces operational time

save set merge functions.

The key beneﬁts of Save Set Manager for OpenVMS

are:

and restore without compromising data integrity

• Selective manipulation of save set contents and at-

tributes

• Transfer of backup save sets between tape drive

technologies

• Transfer of backup save sets from one tape or disk

drive to another tape or disk drive while maintaining

data integrity features

• Reduced down time for a BACKUP/RESTORE oper-

ation

• Ability to monitor degradation of archived save sets

• Wildcard support

• Backup journal ﬁle creation

• Multiple output copies on merge and copy

SSMgr V1.8 supports all operations on ODS-5 disks on

systems running:

OpenVMS Alpha: V7.3-2 (SPD 25.01.XX)

V8.2 (SPD 82.35.XX)

V8.3 (SPD 82.35.XX)

OpenVMS I64: V8.2 (SPD 82.35.XX)

V8.2-1 (SPD 82.35.XX)

V8.3 (SPD 82.35.XX)

This is the basis for support of:

— Long ﬁlenames

— Deep rooted directory structure

— Characters from ISO-LATIN and UNICODE multina-

tional character sets

— "?" as a single character wildcard, in addition to the

existing "%" single character wildcard

SSMgr V1.8 is qualiﬁed for tapes connected on the Fibre

Channel

— OpenVMS Version 7.3-2 and later provides support

for Fibre Channel (FC) connected tape devices. This

is accomplished through the use of Modular Data

Router (MDR) or Network Storage Router (NSR) con-

nected to the FC Switch. The routers convert Fibre

Channel protocol to SCSI protocol, which the tape

device understands. SSM V1.8 has qualiﬁed this fea-

ture in OpenVMS as used with MDR or NSR. Please

refer to OpenVMS SPD(s) for a complete listing of

supported tape devices and routers
